The Hensall and Community Horticultural Society is A Taste of Huron' coming up GRAND BEND — When the damp winds of early November chill our bones and turn the lake the colour of cooked celery, we tend to retreat into the haven of our homes and settle in for a long winter's nap. But once again, it appears the promise of an evening of warmth, light, friendship and mouth watering delights has local residents marking their calendars for Nov. 3. That's when the fifth annual `Taste of Huron 2006 in Black and White' in support of Big Brothers Big Sisters of South Huron will be held in the Huron cooking with memories BY DEBBY WAGLER IT IS WONDERFUL TO HAVE A FEW RECIPES THAT MAKE YOU WANT TO COOK! FOR ME THOSE RECIPES ARE OFTEN SWEET AND CHOCOLATE! YOU CAN ALSO TALK ME INTO SOME NICE COMFORT FOODS ON A RAINY COLD DAY. THE NEXT FEW WEEKS I AM PUTTING IN SOME OF MY OLD FAVORITES. Chocolate Chip Maple Pie This is an amazing pie that is like pecan pie (another well liked dessert of mine) but has a nice twist with the chocolate. My children that don't like nuts take to this a little bit easier. 1 have made these in tarts and I have done a pecan and chocolate combination as well. Very, very good!! 1-9 inch pastry shell uncooked 1 cup semi sweet chocolate chips 3 eggs 2/3 cup white sugar Pinch salt 1 cup maple syrup 1/3 cup melted margarine Spread the chocolate chips in the pie shell. Beat together the eggs, sugar, salt, syrup and margarine till well combined. Pour over chocolate chips. Bake at 425 for 10 minutes and then at 350 for 30 minutes or till just set. Cool and serve with whipped cream. ENJOY! Room at Oakwood Inn From early indications it's headed to be another sell out event. Some of the area's best chefs, Erryn Shephard and Ben Sandwith of F.I.N.E. A Restaurant (Grand Bend), Steve Bland of the Red Pump (Bayfield) and Ian Wark of Ian's Kitchen/Sandhills Golf (Parkhill/Port Franks) will provide a culinary experience worthy of the most discerning palate. The smooth jazz of Change for a Quarter promises to be food for the soul. A silent auction table offering deals on an eclectic mix of high qual- ity and one -of -a -kind treasures is timed perfectly for early Christmas shopping. And it's an opportunity to get cre- ative by dressing to match with the `Black and White' theme. Again this year the community is pulling together to make the event a huge success. Every week more commitments are coming in from local merchants and residents to contribute silent auction items, time, services or direct sponsorship. While all food products and labour have been gen- erously donated for the evening, many other products and services have been discounted. As a result most of the $75 ticket price goes directly toward much needed programs, events and sup- plies for our kids. Help Big Brothers Big Sisters of South Huron help the kids and treat yourself to an evening you and your palate won't soon forget.

Water bottles are made of #1 PET which is one of the most recyclable plastics. Once you have enjoyed your favourite drink in a #1 PET bottle, just place it in your blue box. The equivalent of over 20 million PET bottles are placed in the blue box locally every year. They are recovered and sold to manufacturers that use the plastic to make polyester that is used in applications such as clothing and carpeting. It takes 45 water bottles to make a new T-shirt. The Association recycles enough bottles to make over 440,000 T-shirts annually! That's four T-shirts for each resident. Space provided through a partnership between industry and Ontario municipalities to support waste diversion programs.
